Free Rider Web Hosting has added a new feature to its text-messaging service allowing subscribers to instantly send text messages, as well as standard email.

The service is easy to use. Free Rider Web Hosting customers can access their Web-based email accounts as they always have, but now a drop-down menu gives an option to select email only, text message only or both. A simple cell phone field in the user's address book drives the feature. In addition, Free Rider Web Hosting includes a function that allows users to keep within the 160 character limit required by cell phone carriers for text messages.

"Free Rider Web Hosting sees this as an exciting new feature that will make life easier for customers. People who can send an email but who haven't yet mastered their cell phones will still be able to keep in touch with friends and colleagues who are out and about," said Simon Drain of Free Rider Web Hosting.

Free Rider Web Hosting (www.frwh.net) is a leading web hosting company serving small and medium businesses.
